It was so foggy there an hour or two into the comp. Everyone thought it should/was about to get called off that whole time. Was murky out all morning before that but still not as bad as 10-11am or so. Was out there at 7 and started at Churches and went all the way up to Uppers. I'm impressed as hell with that whole place. Wow. So many waves breaking. Those rocks are sure shallow. Had to paddle out on the back of the board to save the skegs. Figures that the sun came out at Noon when I headed back for rest.

Should be a good next couple days in that comp, KS was awesome to watch and several others. Some very cool people as photographers/spectators and all enjoying themselves. Got to meet several. Gaffer is 100% right about the last few days' conditions. If they started that comp on Thursday it would've been off the chain.

Shoots brah, if you really want pics of me eating schitt I'm sure I could commission a photographer to get a few shotts. I'm using what little space remains on my iPhone 6 on pics with wahines in the sand down at the Hurley though. Gonna hit a spot or two north of San Clemente then head to Trestles early afternoon. No fog to speak of today! We will actually be able to see the heats from the shorebreak this time. Yesterday was wiley but great!

I think Emass got banned from Eastern Mass. He must have gotten some Mayor's daughter preggers, given her AIDsmydia or something.

And dammit Emass, catch a solid one for me.

I'm on it brads. Had to get the lunch sesh in first. Is it a faux pas to wear RC baggies and XCEL tee to the Hurley Pro? Given that I'm sponsored by no one, I don't see an issue. Everyone is very cool and enjoying themselves. I'll keep you informed of any pertinent, earth-shattering events. For now, the only events have been spine-shottering botched takeoffs for me! Happy Monday SI braddahs
